  • Publication number: 20250220650
    Abstract: A method, apparatus and computer readable medium for resource determination in wireless communication. Uplink transmission resource allocation in scenarios involving simultaneous uplink and downlink transmission are addressed by determining frequency-domain resources occupied by an uplink subband based on a protocol. The determination is based on the resource blocks (RBs) of an uplink bandwidth part (BWP) in an uplink slot. A reference RB is used to identify the subband's location, ensuring that the number of RBs occupied by the uplink subband is consistent with those occupied by the uplink BWP.
